Marvel Parts Ways With Jonathan Majors Following His Conviction In Assault Case By Ex-Girlfriend

Jonathan Majors Assault Case: Marvel Studios had bid goodbye to actor Jonathan Majors, who played the major antagonist in their recent movies. The decision was made after he was found guilty in the harassment and assault case by his ex-girlfriend.

Jonathan Majors' ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, accused him of physical violence in the car's backseat, and he was arrested for the same in March 2023. Initially, he denied all the changes made by his ex-lover, but during the trial, he was found guilty as the district attorney released enough evidence, such as text messages, audio chats between these two, driver's testimony, and CCTV footage.

Majors was dropped by his talent management agency, his publicity firm, and also from the film The Man in My Basement. Now, Marvel Studios dropped him out of Marvel Cinematic Universe, in which he was supposed to play the main villain in the upcoming Avengers movies after Thanos was killed in Avengers: Endgame (2019). Now, the MCU will have to plan an all-new antagonist.
